Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad with White Miso Vinaigrette and Soy Sauce Eggs — A hearty, satisfying salad full of crunchy texture and loads of flavor thanks to a tangy-sweet dressing and a topping of deeply savory soy sauce marinated eggs. Yep, the always conspicuous…and News! so we’ll get to that first. Today, I’m completely humbled to announce something that’s been in the works for a while over here. Something that’s been both a labor of love and a rite of passage, of sorts, as we continue to settle into this Coastside community that’s so quickly become the warm, fuzzy hometown … Read More
Spring Things Salad with Pickled Kumquats + Whipped Brie
Greetings from the household of a 3-year-old.

Snap Pea, Parmesan & Bacon Salad with Dijon Dressing
Evening friends. Quick post tonight as I want to save a few things for a bonus post I’ll be putting up later in the weekend. A little sunt’n sunt’n about a certain blog turning one. We might even light a candle, but let’s not get ahead of things. This week has been, in a word, flaughghg. I’ve been operating in a bit of a fog, attempting to nurse myself back to health with a winning mixture of green juice, Emergen-C and DayQuil, but only after a trip to the doc and a five-day stint of antibiotics am I finally starting … Read More
